Default Coming back to Harley

Greetings from Ontario, Canada! As the title states I'll soon be riding a Harley again, well in the spring that is. Currently trading in my Victory Hammer on a CVO Road King or Breakout, very undecided right now as they are pretty different bikes but I'll figure it out.

I used to have a 2006 Harley Street rod which was a very fun little bike but got wooed over to Victory after test riding their Hammer.Good bike but the fit and finish just isn't anywhere near the level of the CVO bikes and the customizing and accessories Harley offer for the stock factory bikes has far more variety than what I can do with my current bike.

I remember when I went to a Victory demo ride day just to see for myself how they ride. I pulled up on my 07 Nightrod and put all those bikes to shame which were 7 years newer! My bike looked better sounded better and ran better than all of them. Too much plastic and the fit n finish was subpar @ best.
